Chapter 68 Sea Wolf Hunting

A gun suddenly sounded on the calm sea. The messy cannons in the gunfire crackled on a boat, and there were also cannons falling on the sea, stirring up a splash.

After half a month of training, the young sea wolves finally embarked on their first pirate journey. On the southern sea off the coast of Fuzhou, they finally found their first target.

Everyone on the ship was both excited and a little nervous. More than a month ago, most of them were either a group of people who could only farm and fish, or people who could only operate boats. However, a month later, they turned to become part of the pirates on the sea and had the name of a sea wolf. No.

After they went through thousands of difficulties and found Treasure Island, as soon as they settled down, Yu Xiaotian began a ten-day hellish training for these guys.

In more than ten days, these people have to get up before dawn. First, they followed Yu Xiaotian around the beach of Treasure Island and ran more than two laps to exercise their physical fitness. Then, after breakfast, they had to board their twin-mao boat and divide the liner according to the previous division of labor under the guidance of Liu Laoliu and Hu Cheng. Change the ship for operation training.

In the afternoon, these people have to return to the island for basic fighting training. As for those who have been designated as soldiers, their main duty is to do the most dangerous close combat work, so Yu Xiaotian is more strict about their requirements. In the morning and afternoon, they will be on the ship or On the beach, they were caught with wooden guns or wooden knife shields and fought for fighting training. Everyone was also forced to choose one of the bows and arrows and fire guns for practice. In a short period of time, Yu Xiaotian did not expect to train them to be sharpshooters, but at least he was required to pick up the bows and arrows, shoot back, exercise fire guns, and be able to fill them. Launch, this is already the most basic requirement.

In addition, in order to exercise the stability of these guys on the shaking boat, Yu Xiaotian also made some boards hanging on the ropes on the beach according to some of the things in the movies and movies he had seen before, forcing them to stand on the boards and grab the ropes to fight with each other.

In a word, in the past ten days, all the men on the island, including a few old guys, were tossed to death by Yu Xiaotian.

Everyone's body was beaten and bruised during training. At night, not to mention chatting and farting as before. After dinner, everyone has to concentrate together to summarize the training situation that day. People with good training will be praised by name. But people with poor training will be punished, at least running around the island.

When they were allowed to rest, almost as soon as they lay down, they snored, and no one had time to think about women.

Almost everyone is a little bitter about this and wants to protest, but they will immediately be said by Yu Xiaotian with various principles that they have nothing to say, so they can only continue to practice honestly.

The only thing that makes these people feel somewhat gratified is that Yu Xiaotian promised them that two months later, the five most outstanding people among them will get the wife they dream of. Such a reward can be said to be a very ** powerful reward for these descendants.

So the young and later students had to grit their teeth and hold their breath to become the first lucky ones with women on the island. Therefore, after more than ten days, no one was lie down by Yu Xiaotian and gritted their teeth to hold on.

In addition, Yu Xiaotian also decided to improve people's lives by changing the two meals a day to three meals a day, not to mention dry meals, and there are fish to eat. Anyway, in the east of Treasure Island, it is a very good natural fishing ground. In addition, the Ming Dynasty banned the sea, the number of fishing boats is very small, and fishing at sea fishing The industry resources are very rich. Before the end of the boat training every morning, they will go down to the sea and catch a lot of fish, and they don't plan to exchange fish for money now anyway, so they have been brought by Yu Xiaotian to improve the quality of life of everyone, so as to ensure that everyone can exercise under a heavy load. The energy needed also improves their physique.

Of course, the reason why these guys can survive is also inseparable from Yu Xiaotian's personal affairs. Yu Xiaotian is the head of this group of people, but he has not made anything special because of this. Since he got up in the morning, he has been following these guys. What they do, Yu Xiaotian will do, and he has to pay. More than them, and consume two or three times more physical strength than them.

People are actually like this. They have the lead as an example. Even if the rest of the people are tired, they have nothing to say. Things are here, and the people in charge can do it. What else can they do? So although this kind of practice made these guys unbearable, they still persisted.

I'm afraid that Zhao Mazi, Li Gouzi and two descendants were the only ones who were lucky. The next morning after they agreed that day, they got on a small fishing boat, left Treasure Island again, and went to Lianjiang County to discuss the shipment with the Li family.

So the few of them escaped the hell training on Treasure Island for more than ten days, which was better than Xiaotian's words first. After they came back, in addition to Zhao Mazi and Li Gouzi, the two descendants still had to make up for the training they lacked before.

After more than ten days, although these people are basically still a group of rabble, at least they have made great progress compared with before, especially for this twin-mast ship, they are basically familiar with the operation. In addition, with Liu Laoliu, Hu Cheng, Liu Tong and other old crew members, they have already This double mast can be operated effectively.

The other seven or eight guys who were selected as soldiers have also grown a lot after more than ten days of training. When they caught and killed each other, they began to look good, and they were familiar with Yu Xiaotian's password and knew that they should follow the order and no longer be as chaotic as before.

Originally, according to Yu Xiaotian's idea, if they wanted to go to the sea to plunder, they would have to go through at least two months of strict practice, but these guys on the island objected greatly and felt that they could do it now. It was not a way to practice like this every day, and they asked them to go out to try their skills.

Even the horse face that has not interfered with him has actually raised objections to Xiaotian's plan, believing that since they are doing this industry, they always do nothing. It is not a way to practice on Treasure Island every day. You can go out and try it. In addition, they are about to run out of food and don't go out of votes. I guess I can only live by eating fish in the future.

After Yu Xiaotian thought about it, he had to agree to their request, because although he is nominally the helmsman now, his position cannot be said to be completely stable. Horse face and Meng madman and others still have a great influence in this group of people. Sometimes he has to think about the ideas of these old guys, and he must make some compromises when necessary.

At present, these guys, especially young people, are in a stage where a bottle of water is dissatisfied, half a bottle of water, and newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. They always suppress their desires, which is not necessarily a good thing. If necessary, they can let them test their own level.

So after Yu Xiaotian considered it comprehensively, he agreed to everyone's request before he went to sea.

Recently, the sea has experienced two more winds and rains. The weather has just improved, and with the arrival of autumn, the weather has begun to cool down, and the wind direction on the sea has gradually begun to turn to more northwest winds, so it is the best time for ships in the south to go north.

So under the guidance of Liu Laoliu, they went to sea and went straight to a route that was often haunted by merchant ships. After a day of searching, Liu Wang, who climbed on the mast as a fighting day, pointed to the sea in the distance and shouted at the people on the ship.

"There is a boat! There is a boat ahead! There is a boat in our southwest! Haha! Look at it!"

After hearing this, they immediately flocked to the starboard side of the ship and stretched their necks to look in the direction of Liu Wang's fingers. After a while, they found that the shadow of a sailboat appeared in their eyes.

Yu Xiaotian said that they were lucky, so he loudly ordered to turn the sail and began to face the sailboat.

After the two sides approached, after being identified by Liu Laoliu, an old sea wolf, they confirmed that the ship was indeed a merchant's merchant ship, so Yu Xiaotian ordered to raise their flag and began to turn the rudder again and pounce on the unlucky merchant ship.

In order to start their name, according to the habits of pirates, each group of pirates will have their own flag. Xiao Dazui's flag is a clean black flag, and some people will hang green flags or other colors of flags. After Yu Xiaotian thought about it, he originally wanted to make a Western sea. The kind of skeleton flag commonly used, but on second thought, he is an authentic Chinese. Why do you have to learn from Western pirates?

So after thinking about it in detail, he chose an indigo cloth they had at hand as their flag, but in order to distinguish their identity from others, he personally drew a wolf's head. Although his painting skills were average, he carefully modified it and reworked it many times. , or let him draw a more vivid shape of the wolf's head.

After that, he asked the women on the island to embroider his hand-painted wolf's head on a piece of indigo blue cloth with gold thread. In this way, a striking golden wolf's head leaped on a blue cloth and made a flag of their own. After watching carefully, Yu Xiaotian was also satisfied. Such a blue-bottomed golden wolf-headed flag also looks quite majestic. The wolf head with grinning and fangs is very fierce, which can be forgotten. If he does well enough, he believes that this golden wolf flag will definitely be famous in the future, so he completely determines them for a long time after This flag will be their flag.

When the first wolf flag representing their sea wolf was raised on the main mast of the ship, everyone on the island couldn't help but be very excited.

Since their birth, many people have never gathered under a flag to become a group, and this wolf flag has become a flag that unites them, which makes everyone have an inexplicable sense of belonging. Some people even feel that this flag has become the heaviest in their lives at that moment. What I want.

Yu Xiaotian announced loudly that when they have this sea wolf flag, they will always gather under this flag. The flag is in the people, and the flag will die! This makes each of them more dependent on this group.

When the sea wolf flag was raised, everyone on the ship was excited and immediately began to run to their respective positions according to the instructions of Yu Xiaotian.

Meng madman, the soldier, screamed excitedly, directly threw away his clothes, exposed his thin ribs, grabbed a single knife, and shouted loudly to order his soldiers to pick up the guy and prepare to do it.
